Press Room

IRVINE, CA, May 15, 2012 – LG-Ericsson USA (www.lgericssonus.com) announced today that the company’s comprehensive IP communications products performed flawlessly in SIP-trunking interoperability testing performed by babyTEL, and have been added to the Montreal-based babyTEL’s portfolio of communications products.

“IP networking is being leveraged more and more to deliver economical broad-spectrum communications, so testing like this is critical” said Iain Kenney, LG-Ericsson USA’s Director of Product Marketing. “babyTEL’s testing showed that our IPECS-LIK pure IP communications solutions with LG-Ericsson’s flexible and comprehensive communications software, can be relied upon for business critical communication.”

“We have high standards for our SIP-trunking solutions,” said Khaled Tewfik, babyTEL Vice President of Technology. “The goal is to provide our customers flexibility, efficiency and reliability, while lowering their overall costs. LG-Ericsson’s iPECS-LIK communications solutions worked flawlessly in our testing, and we are confident that they deliver on that promise to customers.”

babyTEL is now able to take advantage of the integrated SIP Proxy Server on our Call Servers (50/100/300) and enable SIP functionality seamlessly and without any trunking licenses or additional expense. Our SIP Proxy server is fully integrated (no 3rd party appliances needed) and managed from a single GUI, enabling simplicity and driving the total cost of ownership lower while enhancing performance and taking advantage of SIP’s greatest features. What’s more babyTEL’s integrated T.38 adds faxing to SIP enabling an end to end fax origination and termination without the needs of deploying POTS lines or allocating DIDs on a PRI. LG-Ericsson’s iPECS has included T.38 functionality in its platform at no additional cost or licensing fee, and another significant differentiator in our platform.
